Christmas night, another fightTears we cried a floodGot all kinds of poison inPoison in my blood

I took my feetTo Oxford StreetTrying to right a wrongJust walk away Those windows sayBut I can't believe she's goneWhen you're still waiting for the snow to fallDoesn't really feel like Christmas at all

Up above candles on air flickerOh they flicker and they floatBut I'm up here holding onTo all those chandeliers of hope

Like some drunken Elvis singingI go singing out of tuneSaying how I always loved you darlingAnd I always will

Oh when you're still waiting for the snow to fallDoesn't really feel like Christmas at all

Still waiting for the snow to fallIt doesn't really feel like Christmas at all

Those Christmas lightsLight up the streetDown where the sea and city meetMay all your troubles soon be goneOh Christmas lights keep shining on

Those Christmas lightsLight up the streetMaybe they'll bring her back to meThen all my troubles will be goneOh Christmas lights keep shining on

Oh Christmas lightsLight up the streetLight up the fireworks in meMay all your troubles soon be goneThose Christmas lights keep shining on

Shake up the happiness
Wake up the happiness
Shake up the happiness
It's Christmas time

There's a story that I was told
And I wanna tell the world
Before I get to old
And don't remember it
So let's December it
And reassemble it

Once upon a time in a town like this
A little girl made a great big wish
To fill the world full of happiness
And be on Santa's magic list

ChorusShake it up
Shake up the happiness
Wake it up
Wake up the happiness
Come on y'all
It's Christmas time

At the same time miles away
A little boy made a wish that day
That the world would be okay
And Santa Claus would hear him say
I got dreams and I got love
I got my feet on the ground
And family above
Can you send some happiness?
With my best to the rest
Of the people of the East and the West And
Maybe every once in a while you
Get my grandma a reason to smile
It’s the season of smile
It's cold but we'll be freezing in style
Let me meet a girl one day that
Wants to spread some love this way
We can let our souls run free and
She can open some happiness with me

Chorus

I know you're out there
I hear your reindeer
I see the snowing
Your boots have been
I'm gonna show them
So they will know then
Then love will grow in
Then to live again
